Hi, @Banija . It looks like Arch uses an in-memory temporary filesystem, which is preventing Local from unzipping in Arch’s temporary directory then copying the add-on to the addons directory.
If you’re not able to change Arch’s temp directory to a path under /home/
(which should prevent the error), you could try installing the add-on manually:
Quit Local
Download Image Optimizer 2.1.3 .
Decompress it and rename the folder to @getflywheel-local-addon-image-optimizer
.
Copy that folder to /home/[your-username]/.config/Local/addons/
Start Local and activate the add-on from the Add-ons → Installed page, relaunching when prompted.

Arch users who encounter this could also try the workaround here:
Local doesn’t have an option built into it to specify a temp directory, it just uses the same mktmp mechanism as the rest of the Linux ecosystem.
I haven’t tried this, but you might be able to run Local in a shell where you configure the $TMPDIR variable.
I think the command would look something like:
mkdir -p ~/.config/Local/local-tmp-folder # create the folder on your user's partition
export TMPDIR="${HOME}/.config/Local/local-tmp-folder"; /opt/Local/local # or wherever Local is installed t…
